It is already mid-October and the leaves are taking their time changing in my neck of the woods. I saw this image in the UK magazine Simply Cards & Papercrafts (Issue 88) and I had to use it. It is in the digi-stamps and sentiments by David Parkins page insert. Though the photo doesn't show the dimension well the little leaves are some I pulled off an oak leaf mini garland and are actually silk. The ribbon was floating loose in the drawer so I don't remember its source. The same goes for the light blue card paper. The light brown paper is a page out of an old Sizzix catalog and was just the right color. Every thing else was colored with Copic markers.
